“Mouse was extremely well taken care of. She took him to the park and dog run every day (which he loves to do). He was well fed. Shandy followed my written instructions to the tee. He was so happy there I wasn't sure he would want to come home. Shandy is a keeper. I will use her services every time. I cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of Mouse.”
“Tafra was amazing with my puppy. Her girls loved on her as well. She was loved which made leaving her a little less difficult. I will definitely use Tafra again and highly recommend her services!”
“Annabelle was just a great dog sitter for us! She responds to communication very quickly, and worked to accommodate our 'nervous pet parent' needs for our first trip away from our pup. She's warm and friendly and also has a strong pet care background. We had 2 doggie play dates before our trip so we could ensure our dog got along with hers. I will 100% use Annabelle again, and recommend her without reservation!”
About: Ive taken care of pets pretty much my whole life. Dogs and cats, we have 2 dogs at home and three inside cats! They all love each other and I love taking care of them! I am a college student at FHSU, and I love being around pets even though we cannot have any in the dorms. I love to get exercise in and it’s even better when I have a furry friend with me! I will not be able to bring them to my home, but I treat everyone’s belonging and property better than I would treat my own! I have house sat for my grandparents and leave it better than they left it every time! I love pets and I am a very respectful and kind person!
About: There are 2 Dogs in the house at all times. (Kelo and Chief) They share the furniture daily and bed every night. I'm happy to treat your dog to the same luxuries that Chief and Kelso get to experience as long as they are properly trained to do so. I can also keep them in their own kennel at night if that needs to be done as well. I'm happy to work with you to make your dogs experience as easy as possible. We both know that anxiety can get the best of owners and their Pets (AKA best friends) are apart! The 2 dogs in home are a Boston Terrier and a Boxer who are super friendly outgoing and love to play boxer is very gentle. If your family members are here. Please feel free to ask questions!!! I currently am home most of the time. I do come and go but will be home if pets are home, This way, if something is needed I willl be there. Home is cleaed every day, dishes are always done, laundry and floors. Have 2 dogs in home full time have to clean regularly to make sure the house is clean and smells nice. Anyone with pets knows not hard to have a stinky house if you have dogs that are inside all the time. Sweep and scrub floors as needed. Also have capet cleaner as well if needed. Use all these items to ensure place is nice and clean and safe.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hays home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Hays.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Hays sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in KS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
